Chapter 39: Marrying a Girl (3)
On the red velvet cloth lies a pair of chiseled silver ctenophores (the general name of the ancient comb grate), which is not big, but the pattern is very exquisite, and the workmanship is very exquisite. It's not very valuable, but it makes people like it. Ming Fei vaguely guessed something, and still looked at Yupan as if she didn't understand: "Sister Yupan, what is this?" β
Yupan said with a smile: "After the second lady rises in the sunrise pavilion, the aunts and ladies of the family will go to add makeup to her." Madame was afraid that the third lady would be in a hurry and would not have time to prepare, so she prepared for you in advance. I gave it in front of others, and I was afraid that the mouth would be broken, saying that Mrs. was favoritism, so I asked the slave to give it to you quietly. β
It's about not saying it yourself. Ming Fei thanked him gratefully, and asked Yupan again: "Then the sixth lady will also give it away, right?" β
Yupan said: "That's nature. However, Miss Six's has already been prepared and placed at her nurse's place. Madame means that sooner rather than later, let you go out this time, and take the sixth miss to the second miss's yard together. β
I'm afraid it's too late, right? Ming Fei nodded yes, grabbed three handkerchiefs and put them on the silver crest, called Jiao Tao in and brought the box, and went back to the room together. Before he reached the door, he heard Mingyu's cheerful laughter mixed with the faint barking of the puppy, as well as the dissuasive voice of Mingyu's nurse Zhou's mother: "Miss Six, this is not in accordance with the rules." If you show the flower mother......"
Mingyu said proudly: "Mother Hua is not here." β
What is this doing? Ming Fei quickened her pace, the little maid guarding the door hurriedly saluted, opened the curtain to report, Ming Fei raised her hand at her, and walked in lightly.
After seeing the situation in the house clearly, Ming Fei couldn't help but smile. What a lovely pair. Mingyu squatted in front of Xifu, and Xifu stared at each other, Xifu wanted to go left, she jumped to the left to stop, Xifu went to the right, she jumped to the right again. Xifu whined, turned around and walked back, Mingyu learned to frog jump, and passed over the top of its head from behind Xifu and landed directly in front of it, so frightened that Xifu panicked, retreated again and again, and bluffed wildly.
After all, it's just a six-year-old child, so it's very normal to behave like this. But because I grew up in this kind of family, it became unruly. Ming Fei simply sat down on a stool and watched Mingyu and Xifu fight each other.
Mother Zhou saw Ming Fei, and was about to step forward to salute, but Ming Fei glanced at her and called out mischievously: "Mother Hua, are you back?" β
Mingyu was so frightened that she sat on the ground and looked left and right: "Where is Mother Hua?" "What she is most afraid of in this family is Master Cai and Mingzi, followed by Mother Hua. Yesterday she was naughty and drenched two books with tea, so Mother Hua slapped her palm with a ring ruler, she cried and went to complain to Cai Guangting, but was scolded by Cai Guangting, and she automatically defined Mother Hua as one of the characters who could not be provoked.
The girls all covered their mouths and laughed. Mingyu knew that she was teased by Ming Fei, her little face was red with anger, her eyes were foggy, and she looked at Ming Fei angrily: "Third sister, you are not a good person, and you also bully me." β
Ming Fei saw that she was really going to cry, so she hurriedly pulled her: "Love crying cat, do you want to play with you, you have to cry like this?" β
Mingyu became more and more angry: "I'm not a crying cat, I'm willing to be a crying dog at most." β
Ming Fei was stunned: "Why?" β
Mingyu stood up with her hand and pouted, "Anyway, I just don't be a cat." β
Mother Zhou explained softly to Ming Fei: "The fourth miss has a big white cat, which is very fierce, and has scratched the sixth miss several times. Miss Six was a little scared. β
Where is the cat, it is clear that the master is deliberately indulgent. Mingfei's eyes darkened, hugged Mingyu and said, "Okay, Mingyu wants to be a crying dog, not a crying cat." β
Mingyu was still unhappy: "Third sister, my brother is also eccentric." Seeing that Ming Fei didn't understand, she pointed to Xifu and said, "Why does my brother only give you one person and refuse to give me one too?" He is partial, and you go with me to scold him. β
Ming Fei smiled: "That's because my sister fed a dog before, and then my sister was very sad when she separated from it, and my brother was afraid that my sister would cry, so I found Xifu to comfort my sister." β
Mingyu touched his nose, pondered for a moment, and said, "Okay, I'm not angry with my brother anymore." Will you let me play with Xifu in the future? β
Ming Fei said: "You can play with it as much as you like." But be careful not to let it bite you and don't hurt it. "There is no rabies vaccine for dogs here, and it is likely to be fatal.
Mingyu nodded contentedly: "I promise I won't hurt it." As he spoke, he squatted down and touched Xifu's head: "Don't be afraid, I won't bite you." The girls burst out laughing again.
Ming Fei discussed with Zhou's mother: "I want to go with Miss Six to see Miss Second." β
Mother Zhou was really prepared, and hurriedly took out a box from her arms and handed it to Ming Fei: "It's been prepared for a long time." β
Ming Ya and Ming Pei live in a small courtyard in the west of Cai Mansion, because the yard is planted with Xifu begonias, and when the flowers are in full bloom, the courtyard is full of splendor, so the yard is called Yi Xiu. At this time, the begonia tree has budded, lining the whole yard full of vitality.
The house in the courtyard has a concave structure, and one of the three main rooms is not inhabited by anyone, and it is used as a common study. Ming Ya is the elder sister, so she occupies the main house on the east side and the wing room on the east side, and Ming Pei occupies the room on the west side.
Ming Fei and Ming Yu ran into the third aunt when they entered the courtyard, and the third aunt heard that the two were coming to see Mingya, so they happily welcomed the two of them in and ordered someone to make good tea.
Mingya was lying on the beauty couch, her face and hands were covered with a thick white paste, exuding a large smell of Chinese medicine. Hearing someone coming in, when he opened his eyes, he saw that it was Mingfei and Mingyu, so he was about to get up and sit up, but as soon as he shook it, the paste on his face fell down, and he couldn't help but be in a hurry and embarrassed for a while.
Women love beauty in ancient and modern times, and Mingya should be preparing for the wedding the day after tomorrow. Ming Fei hurriedly said: "Second sister, you don't have to get up, just lie down." Mingyu and I just came to see you, and we just talked to my aunt. β
Mingya said apologetically: "It's just that the two sisters are waiting for me." β
Ming Fei smiled: "Second sister is polite. β
Mingyu didn't care about the kind words her sisters, she just leaned over curiously, first wrinkled her nose and sniffed, and then stretched out a finger to wipe a little paste on the back of Mingya's hand and was about to put it in her mouth: "What is this?" β
Mother Zhou hurriedly took her hand and wiped her with a handkerchief: "Little ancestor, what are you going to do?" "It doesn't matter if you eat it or not, you put everything in your mouth, if you let the eldest prince know, won't you pick your own skin?
Mingyu smiled disappreciatively: "What are you afraid of?" I just want to taste what it is. A lot of medicinal smell, what is the second sister doing? Why do you put medicine on your face and hands? Is it uncomfortable? Which doctor prescribed the prescription? So weird? β
The third aunt hurriedly said: "Tong Yan is unscrupulous, Tong Yan is unscrupulous." Second Miss is fine. β
Mingya's ears turned red, but it was not easy to explain that this was a recipe found by the third aunt, it is said that applying it to the face can make the skin white and delicate, and the makeup will be more obedient on the day of marriage, and the person will be more energetic and beautiful.
Mingfei was secretly amused, and pulled the troublesome Mingyu to her side and nodded her nose: "Didn't you eat breakfast in the morning?" Hungry and want to eat the paste on the face of the second sister? β
Mingyu said unrelentingly: "Third aunt, tell me what it is, I will wipe it too." β
The third aunt had no choice but to coax her: "This can only be applied by adults, in order to put it on the face comfortably." Miss Six is still too young to apply. β
Mingyu just stopped it, she couldn't suppress her curiosity, ran to Mingya's side and stared at her, and saw that Mingya's whole body seemed to have many small insects crawling, and she was not comfortable at all.
If Mingyu continues like this, then this trip is not to see people, but to add to the chaos. Ming Fei hurriedly asked Jiao Tao to take out the box and hand it to the third aunt: "Third aunt, this is a little bit of heart I give to the second sister." I don't know what she likes, and she doesn't have any good things in her hand. β
Seeing this, Zhou's mother was also busy giving Mingyu's gift, which was a pair of silver earrings inlaid with cat's eye stones.
The things sent by the two sisters are not valuable, but the workmanship is very beautiful, and it can be seen that it is carefully selected, which is very suitable for everyday wear. The most important thing in gift-giving is a heart, and the third aunt also knew that the two sisters were in a special situation, so they accepted it happily and said a lot of kind words for Mingya.
Everyone is not familiar with each other, and slowly they can't find anything to say, before the atmosphere becomes awkward, Ming Fei got up to say goodbye, and the third aunt pretended to stay and sent the two sisters out.
Mingpei took two thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls to sit under the porch embroidering handkerchiefs, and when she saw the two Mingfei sisters coming out, she greeted them with a smile and invited them to play. Before Ming Fei could speak, Mingyu secretly pulled her sleeve and hinted that she should not go. Ming Fei didn't plan to go, and when she saw this, she didn't want to go, so she only smiled: "Thank you for the kindness of Fifth Sister, it's just that the homework assigned by Hua's mother hasn't been done yet, and you will be punished if you go late." β
Mingpei feigned surprise: "Mother Hua is so strict? No, she usually sees me and the fifth sister quite kindly. What did you learn? How are you learning? If you don't understand, I can teach you. β
Jiao Tao was very unhappy when she heard this, and secretly thought, what kind of thing are you! Dare to climb on Miss Yan's head? Do you dare to say that you teach Miss Yan? Who teaches who doesn't necessarily know.
The smile on Ming Fei's face remained unchanged, and he didn't say much to her, and said vaguely: "It's just to learn the rules." Fifth sister, we really have to go, you have time to sit with me. β
Ming Pei threw down the needlework in her hand and ran over to grab Ming Fei: "Don't, third sister, since you came back from the countryside, our sisters haven't had a chance to talk back, don't be so unfunny, sit down for a while?" β
Ming Fei smiled and pulled away her hand: "Another day, there will be more opportunities in the future." β
Mingpei said tentatively: "What are the opportunities in the future?" You're not leaving, are you? β
Ming Fei smiled and lowered his head: "I obey my parents' arrangements for everything." β
